The ideal course companion, Elements of Physical Chemistry is written specifically with the needs of undergraduate students in mind, and provides extensive mathematical and pedagogical support while remaining concise and accessible.

• Experienced author team renowned for rigorous but accessible explanations of concepts in physical chemistry.
• Chemist's toolkits present the foundations of physics and mathematics right where and when they are needed.
• Students are further supported in their learning by the provision of features such as notes on good practice, key concept checklists, and equation labels and annotations.
• Frequent self-test questions allow students to check their understanding as they progress through the material, while end-of-chapter exercises and problems help to consolidate problem solving skills.

New to this Edition:

• Radically updated structure to help improve digestibility and flexibility; material has been broken down into short 'Topics' which are organised into 'Focus' sections.
• A new 'collect your thoughts' feature shows students how they might go about approaching a particular problem.
• Three questions posed at the beginning of each Topic explain why it is important, what the key idea is, and what the student already needs to know.
• New 'impact' sections online show the application of physical chemistry in a diverse range of modern contexts.
• Many derivations and worked examples now include more intermediate steps, helping students gain a deeper understanding of the underlying mathematics.
